Screenshot of group chat app. User named "shelby" with a Mickey Mouse avatar said "Adolf Hitler" with a thumbs down emoji. They then added "at least in my opinion.." after that.

damn copilot is it really that bad?

i just don't know how i can be friends with this claude guy
Screenshot of a conversation with Claude 4.0 Sonnet (part 1 of 2). Me: How do you think the unthinkable? Claude: You approach the unthinkable by deliberately breaking out of your usual thought patterns and assumptions. Here are some ways to do it: Question your fundamental assumptions. Start with what you consider absolutely certain and ask "What if this weren't true?" Most breakthroughs come from challenging ideas we never thought to question. Use extreme scenarios. Push ideas to their logical extremes or imagine impossible situations. Science fiction writers do this constantly - they ask "What if gravity reversed?" or "What if time flowed backward?" These thought experiments often reveal new possibilities. Cross-pollinate between unrelated fields. The history of innovation is full of people who combined ideas from completely different domains. Darwin's theory of evolution was influenced by Malthus's essay on population growth. Velcro was inspired by burr seeds. Embrace paradox and contradiction. Instead of resolving contradictions immediately, sit with them. Sometimes the "impossible" coexistence of opposing ideas points toward a deeper truth or novel solution. Change your perspective radically. Think from the viewpoint of your worst enemy, a child, an alien, or someone from a completely different culture or time period. Each perspective reveals blind spots in your thinking. Use systematic creativity techniques. Methods like random word association, reverse thinking (how would you make this problem worse?), or asking "How would nature solve this?" can jolt you out of conventional patterns. The key is recognizing that "unthinkable" usually just means "outside our current mental frameworks." Once you realize those frameworks are choices rather than absolutes, you can start thinking beyond them. Screenshot of a conversation with Claude 4.0 Sonnet (part 2 of 2). Me: With an itheberg Claude: Ah, you're talking about using an iceberg as a thinking tool! The iceberg metaphor is brilliant for approaching the unthinkable because it forces you to look beneath the surface. The visible tip represents the obvious, conventional thoughts - what everyone can see and what we normally focus on. But the real mass, the unthinkable possibilities, lie hidden beneath the waterline. To think the unthinkable with an iceberg approach: Identify what's above the surface - the accepted facts, common solutions, obvious interpretations. Write them down. Then dive deeper systematically. Ask what assumptions are holding up those surface thoughts. What historical, cultural, or personal biases might be shaping what seems "obvious"? Go to the hidden 90%. What factors are invisible but might be more important than what's visible? What would change if you flipped the iceberg upside down - made the hidden part visible and questioned the "obvious" part? Follow the underwater currents. Icebergs move in ways that seem mysterious from the surface, but they're following deep ocean currents. What deeper forces or patterns might be moving your problem in ways you can't see? Consider the whole ecosystem. Real icebergs exist in relationship with water temperature, currents, marine life, climate patterns. Your "unthinkable" insights might come from understanding the larger system rather than focusing on the isolated problem. The iceberg reminds us that breakthrough thinking happens when we stop looking at just the tip and start exploring the vast, hidden territory underneath.

My prioritization matrix is the big dipper
A chart with two axes that divides bubbles into 4 quadrants. The horizontal axis says "more effort" on the left and "less effort" on the right. The vertical axis says "less valuable" at the bottom and "more valuable" at the top. The top left (high effort high value) quadrant is titled "Leaps". The top right (low effort high value) quadrant is titled "Low Hanging Fruits". The bottom left (high effort low value) quadrant is titled "Traps". The bottom right (low effort low value) quadrant is titled "Quick Wins". The bubbles in the chart that represent tasks form a shape similar to the big dipper star constellation in the sky.

Adaptation of the "mental gymnastics" meme template that shows Anthropic's Claude at the top going from 3 to 3.5 and 3.7 by just walking over the mat and looking satisfied. In contrast, OpenAI's ChatGPT at the bottom starts off by jumping on horizontal bars with 3.5, 3.5 Turbo, 4, 4o and 4o mini. It then jumps on the rings with o1-mini, o1-preview, o1 and o1 pro mode. Then comes the pommel horse straddle trick with o3-mini, o3-mini high and 4.5. Finally, it flies off with a jetpack over a burning car that is somehow 4.1, o4-mini and o3.

After 4 failed attempts, I've successfully built a 36-key split ergonomic keyboard!

Buying a kit and following its guide is a good idea if you haven't successfully built one before.
Top view of a corne-style split ergonomic keyboard with a 5x3 matrix of keys and three thumb keys on each side - 36 keys in total. The case is black and the keycaps are white with grey symbols. The keycaps are arranged in the Colemak-DH layout. The keyboard halves are combined with a coiled TRRS cable and one of the halves has a USB-C cable coming out of it.

happens to the best of us
Meme that says "LeBron James reportedly forgot to feed svelte 5 cursorrules to the LLM and got back runeless code" at the bottom. On the right, there is a picture of LeBron James rubbing his eyes in disappointment during a basketball game. On the left, there are some examples of Svelte 4 code that are not recommended in Svelte 5: exporting variables for props, "on:click" instead of "onclick", defining derived values using the "$:" syntax.

Svelte's clsx class attributes are really nice for grouping Tailwind classes!
Screenshot of a code editor showing a refactor of splitting Tailwind classes grouped into an array with red-green before-after diff highlighting.

The @antennapod.org Echo is really cool! It's not storing any data about me in a server but it can still show me a Wrapped thing using local data. More open source apps need to do this.
AntennaPod Echo (like Spotify Wrapped but for podcasts) displaying my top 5 podcasts of the year: 1. Syntax - Tasty Web Development Treats 2. Clearer Thinking with Spencer Greenberg 3. 80,000 Hours Podcast 4. Full Stack Radio 5. Parks and Recollection
